Police raids in NSW forest

[Flowerpot]

This was broadcast on Yahoo 7 just last week.(Today/tonight) showed police ripping out hundreds of plants in several areas in NSW state forests near Nimbin - They had spotted the stuff from the air and they said it was difficult to get to on the ground. They showed footage of plants being winched up one by one. Can't think why they would have gone to so much trouble when they could've winched them up in bundles. It''s all supposed to be burned ? It would be more efficient to let the growers organise its burning - that's what they intended to do in the first place. I am new to this community, although I have a long history of familiarity with the subject having lived many years in Mexico.

You would think that it would be cheaper to wait until it is harvested then do a bust. Unless their personal stashes were getting low. Ridiculous amount of wasted time and tax payers money.
